Celebration for this Hari Raya - 1st Oktober 2008

Preparation

This year Hari Raya collided with my involvement with F1 Night Races. Therefore the first victims was the ketupat. I could only make 30 pieces of ketupat, usually more. But this was salvaged by Yas (Isteri Abang Nal) who volunteered making up the numbers. Since Zaiton did well with the cooking together with Chef Nabihar, the ketupats, rendang plus other dishes were well prepared. Well done mummy & grany.......

I guess all this for the love for all the cucus, Adam, Exel Ali, Ashydiq, Aidid, Hazirah & Danial.

Kueh Suji

My lovely wife Zaiton, found an immediate passion to fill up her time while waiting for me every F1 nights (usually i got home around 1.00AM) She successfully made her own Suji and I am impressed. Personally I never like Suji. But this year it became the pride of the family. May be next year we could take orders as the words get around. Boys - Ashydiq & Aidid snapped up every Suji available.

Family Re Union / Tracking relationship via Family Tree

This is the first year we celebrated Hari Raya since my dad, Haji Baba passed away & I felt tinged of sadness evenmore. But what struck me was that I realised as the more of the elderly family members left us, we are only left with memories. Problem is my children or new member to the family (thru marriage), will not be able to know who is who in the family tree.

There is now the urgency to start my " Family Tree" project. This is to put on record every member for this family and confirm their data officially, so if 50 or 60 years down the road my grandchildren will know who their grandfather was, and plus other grandies/grannies. Always pandang belakang...

Hari Raya House to House Visit

Another issue that cropped up every Hari Raya is that I always can remember the house but not the address. And the phone number is usually not updated. This usually hamper the original plan & lead us to scrambling of options !! Therefore to assist my fellow family members overcome this or at least soften the difficulties, I will update try to update all the latest address or contact number from nenek, datuk, pak cik, mak cik to anak-anak saudara.... Hopefully next year will be a breeze.....

Transportation

This year I' ve got a 7 Seater Hyundai Trajet to move around the 1st week. Almost an incident- free until Aimei, Alin's maid opened the door and touched a nearby park car with the owner making so much fuss on nothing. This happened at Ang Mo Kio near Cik Jan new house (She just move). He could even took a photo & wanting to claim insurance, such a classic case of an idiot !! Well that did not dampened the Hari Raya spirit at all ....

F1 FORMULA ONE SGP FLAG MARSHAL

2008-10-18T18:22:00.010+08:00

26 September 2008 - 28 Sept 2008 F1 Singapore Grand Prix

I was part of history as the first F1 Night Race in Singapore speed thru the Marina Circuit. After months of training (e-modules & theory at SMU and practical at Marina Circuit and Turf City as I was an officially a Flag Marshal posted at Turn 13.6.

Nothing equal the experience as Lewis Hamilton, Felipe Massa, Alonso or Raikonen blast past my Flag Post touching barely my yellow flag as the Safety Car was deployed. With fellow Flaggies (Flag Marshals), communicating to the Drivers with our flags & DigiFlag is as real as it gets, living the dream for F1 Superfans like us.

As Tony Martin said, you could spent $10,000 on VIP ticket to view F1 races but nothing beats the experience as Renault, Mclarens or Ferrari zoom past you, shattering with lightning speed, leaving your body vibrated & still wondering it's gonna be a crash at the next Turn 14 after your Sector.

My Turn 13.6 Sector Marshal in Charge - Ashley Penhall said, " I wasted my money in Adelaide or Melbourne just by lookin the F1 or V8 blast past. It's the action guys. And the action is down on the track & get my hands dirty pushing Ferrari & Renault when it stalled , engine blew or picking up pieces of debris from BMW Sauber & Mclaren hot engines....

Don't believe what these guys are saying, check it out & look for yourself.. .....

Sunat Berkhatan or Circumcision

2008-06-25T22:41:00.005+08:00

Sunat or Berkhatan - Circumcision a different experience

3 June 08, Tuesday, 12.00pm – Spoke to my colleague Bro Jam. He instead went to KK Women & Children's Hospital to get his son circumcise. However he took a longer route. Firstly he registered at local polyclinic, who in turn make arrangement to book an appointment for his son.

As December holiday was the chosen month, it was fully booked. "As expected" he said. KK gave him an appointment the following year June. Was kind of 1 year too long. No choice, it was at a subsidised rate & also Medisave deduction for the balance payment. Cost him around $300 plus. (now probably - $400)

Well Alhamdullilah, everything went smooth also. Done by an Indian Doctor. Using laser technology and his son recovered early and was well and about in matter of few days.Amazing !! A far cry from the olden days in our time. Parents nowadays have far less worry.

Got one Bro relatives who sent his son to Dr Aziz in Kembangan. News that he got to fork out close to $1000 for the surgery to be done in East Shore Hospital - Telok Kurau. Well parents go all the way to ensure the best for their kids especially in terms of medical & education.

Tips from Doctor -

*** If a young boy never stretch his genital at full length, the skin might have problems sticking in and this might pose a bit of complication and take longer time to recover.

SUNAT/BERKHATAN

28 May 08, Wednesday, 2.00pm – Ashydiq took a big step to becoming a big brother to Aidid.. I brought him to Dr Sidek’s Clinic in East Point, Simei. He conquered his fears and faced Dr Saifuddin Sidek himself for his circumcision – laser style. As Mama Zaiton was hurrying from her office (she was on half day leave), Ashydiq uttered prayers – “ Bismillah & Al-Fatehah “ gathering courage, ready for “ Sunat or Berkhatan “.

Alhamdulilah, armed with kain pelikat (I bought 2 pcs at $8 each on Monday night at Tanjong Katong Shpng Centre) Ashydiq came out walking steadily from the treatment room. He did it !! Bravo!! He was given a “Certificate of Bravery” & goody bags to reward for his bravery act. (the laser surgery went for abt 30 min in all).

After receiving a bottle of pain killer and cream to apply, I had to settle $35.00 cash only as the rest of payment - $500 (thru Medisave Deduction). Dr Shaifuddin Sidek is a man with few words but his work was flawless. There was no hanger jutting out. He used half cut plastic cup to cover Ashydiq’s bird.

At around 4.00pm, Ashydiq wriggled with pain, Kesian, I gave him the painkiller. He was in tears despite all the fan blasting at him until abt 4.40pm, the pain subsided.

By Saturday Ashydiq already showers, loose the cups, wear underwear & pants getting ready for Doa Selamat by Pak Andak. The Kenduri Doa Selamat synchronised with his 9^th Birthday celebration on Fri – 30 May and he truly enjoyed it.

Personally I though it was a service well delivered. A high tech laser circumcision surgery (lesser pain for boys) proven for early and fast recovery.

Alhamdulilah. Would highly recommend parents looking for complete ease in sunat procedure for their boys.

What Up !!
For years of having been dwelling in the Banking/Financial industry and find it amazing that there are still so many to learn about money, wealth or insurance plus other aspect of financials. Money is so important as important and valuable as love, health and mental well being. Therefore this is where I think I should share my experience & knowledge. For knowledge, no matter how small it is, is to be share and I, I am still learning like u. It's payback time........

25 May 2008 - Today this year, in the ever-continuing process of bringing perfect harmony and happiness to my lovely family I came upon something which i could learn. Not only the fact that i could understand something practically new but also do offer the opportunity to teach my wife and growing kids.
I'm married to a lovely woman, sorry, my Zaiton and kids Ashydiq & Aidid and they are definitely a bundle of joy. The fact that I have to leave them for half a day today to participate in this class, is to later share with them tool in the world of communication.
